    I blame the ****s that made him captain of his country as a 20 y/o just back from a massive injury. This season he's been good, and looks more confident.

    **** I just noticed I may have called a dead man a ****. What I mean is the pressure got to him and his performance dip was mostly psychological, on top of his insecurity in going into challenges.

    I disagree. I think Speed had the right idea, he (Ramsey) was probably going to be Wales captain anyway, so instead of waiting, he just did it now, to save time. You're right when you say it negatively affected his performances, but it did make sense at the time, him being a proud welshman and promising talent.

    So Jack is our 3rd choice captain. Interesting.

    Good job tonight, Gunners. Ramsey and Jack very good, Poldi devastating. Four points off CL places. Fat Sam unhappy. A good night!

    Jabba the Hutt “They played Chelsea on Sunday and we played 24 hours earlier on Saturday, which gives us a slight advantage physically because they’ve had less time to recover.
    “We also hope the disappointment of their 2-1 defeat against Chelsea means there might be a little lack of confidence.
    “If that’s the case then we might have a chance of getting a result."


    Yeah you got a result alright.

    Just not a very good one Sam .

    Quite right. Ramsey is still not starting material IMO, but he is slowly getting there.

    Not for the whole season, but for the last 5 matches he's done well.

    The first Giroud goal last night - watch it again.
    Merts spins off from the near post, taking his marker into the centre, and goes to block off the guy marking Giroud. Giroud makes a perfectly timed run to the near post and arrives unmarked, Theo puts in a perfect ball, and it's in the back of the net.
    Absolutely training ground 101, it's fantastic to see that they've been working on their set pieces :)
